I’ll be there with my Dutchy!!

From @noneck

With summer in full swing, who wants to ride a bike like Lance Armstong? This is why we’re swinging by Adeline Adeline to show you some stylish rides, an opportunity to meet other #bikeNYC’rs and catch up on some refreshing refreshments.

Please join us at 6:30 at Adeline Adeline, 147 Reade St (btw Greenwich & Hudson), TriBeCa.

After 7:30 or so, and possibility weather dependent, we’ll head up the west side greenway to a little port of call with drinks, food and sunset on 70th street, pier i cafe.

*btw, a few people will be meeting up at Kiva Cafe, just a few doors down from Adeline Adeline, around 5:30 or so for tea and crumpets.

**what’s a tweetup? it’s a physical gathering of NYC cyclists who also use social media. you can see our on going conversation at #BikeNYC.

i’m no speed demon. the extent of my exuberance extends from the top of the bridge to the bottom. other than that, i’m in the slow lane looking at the city. as an avid supporter of nyc based products, i’m quite excited to see that Hold Fast is a Brooklyn foot strap manufacture. while they cater to “freestyle” cyclist, i’m wondering if these suckers will hold up to my dress shoes and flip flops…
